[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sblop:
Hi All,

I see my self as a hobby flasher. I generally flash my phone 1-2 times every 2 weeks as I'm always unsatisfied by the performance/batt life.

Generally speaking I believe I have tried most roms. I like new project, well knowing that these often is not as optimized as the well tried roms that have been in "production" for many months. But I have some questions popping up, that I would like an answer to.

1. Is it only me, or has all Cyanogen 10.1 roms generally speaking a bad performance? I tried seveal performance kernels, but this rarely helps. If my phone is not randomly freezing, things like google now and chrome have problems. Either it is okay performance wise, or the batterylife is horrible.

2. Batt life. I have now had my note just above one year. Like 13 months or so. In the beginning the battery life was descent. On close to every XDA rom I have tried the batterylife is really short. Surfing on my phone for 1 hours eats a LOT of battery and my phone gets warm. Of cause the factory roms "knows" all the hardware secrets, and are able to produce an optimized rom, but until now I am to be positively surprised about battery usage in any user rom. Any advice? Recently I have disabled location settings/latitude etc, and this have helped some (obviously) but can it be that the built in google features take that much battery? Betterbatterystats confirms that google location services uses a LOT of juice. Are your experience the same?

3. Is the chrome browser that bad? - I use it mainly as I use chrome on my computer and I have all the book marks, but I think it keeps freezing. Generally speaking I think it is okay, but it is by far the app I use that freezes/FC most. Is your experience the same? What browser do you use?

4. What is your Rom/Kernel setup? It will have to offer good (maybe not great) performance, but will have to have great (not good) batterylife.

Looking forward to your replies.

-Benjamin

[HTC Sensation] bjones72751:
I'm just curious. I'm running the newest elegancia 4.1 on 3.32 firmware. What exactly is the difference in 3.33? Would there be any noticeable change in operation or performance? Mainly just wondering if its worth the effort to change firmware as I'm not seeing any bugs with the Rom/firmware I currently use.

Also, I dropped my phone recently and my WiFi will no longer turn on. I'm assuming I somehow physically broke my WiFi, as I've tried restoring a backup and new rom and still nothing. Any other ideas?
[HTC Sensation] Sultanxda:
The difference between 3.32 and 3.33 is that 3.33 updates your radio to 11.24 (you can check what radio you have by booting into the bootloader).
[HTC Sensation] elvisypi:
Actually it's radio 1.76 in 3.33. Also it changes the ril and hboot. But saying that there's not that much difference all roms that work with 3.33 work with 3.32 also
[HTC Sensation] mlcgruhlke:
Remove the back cover and look for broken contacts at the top of the phone there's a thread on xda but don't remember where if you discover broken ones try replacing the back cover as this is where the antennas mobile at TBS bottom and GPS WiFi at the top I think
[HTC Sensation] bjones72751:
I've looked. They seem fine. WiFi won't even turn on, just sits at turning on and drains battery or errors out.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rutu3:
From last few weeks i noticed that my snaps are not clear & sharp they used to be. I tried various settings, tried other camera apps, still images were blurry. Then i notice white particles on my camera lens. I tried to clean it, but they are not from outside.

Ideally lens should be clear like below one.

But in my camera i cant see lens, it is totally covered with some dust particles.

My warranty is already expired.

I m going to take cell to the service center after 2 days, how much they will charge. I think its possible to clean lens from inside.

See this

What you guys think, do i need to replace whole camera or service center guys can clean it?

I know these service center guys may tell me its hardware fault and will charge me more, so just want to clarify have any one faced similar kind of issue and how you solved it.

Right now don't have good camera to click actual photo of my lens. Will try to post it asap.

I was thinking is that possible to get TW as working base rom with some customization features of ASOP roms.

all you said was for me to do the same thing that elesbb said.

my problem remains that i dont know how to do that...
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] elesbb:
It's not that simple. You are right about the kernel though.

I know on my s3 it's called initrd.gz or something like that then you need to use a tool to convert that to an actual image, or using the same tool, convert your already created image into the initrd format then put back into the kernel.

I'm not sure how the transformer kernel is I haven't had time to tear it apart.

Hi,

Somebody else asked this question just recently.

I have done this on my Sony Xperia Mini-Pro (SK17i). I added my XDA avatar to the boot screeen prior to the bootanimation.. It replaced the Sony logo.

I spent hours over a period of 3 weeks trying to get it to work (I should have given up as I did not know what I was doing and just wanted it to work). I was doing this on a windows7 machine which added to my confusion with what to do.

The Sony SK17i is almost unbrickable. I lost count of the times I flashed re-flashed bootlooped and generally stuffed it up. From my hours of reading forum post after forum post there was 1 thing that stood out for me. If the image you create to replace the boot logo is too big (bigger than the 1 you are replacing) it will overwrite some important stuff (I did say I had no idea what I was doing..well almost none)...this will result in a bricked tablet. In my case that was one thing I made sure of, that the image I was replacing was not bigger than the original (I mean the file size), from what I understood there would have been no going back even for my phone. (I think it may overwrite memory in the phone?)

Here is a link that I found referring to this process:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1477845

Please note this link is for Linux... I did this from Windows 7 which was a serious pain in the ass ! There is another link in that thread that refers to a thread by DooMLoRD about replacing the logo.rle file which may enlighten you further.

When someone else asked about this recently I warned against touching this unless he was 300% sure he knew what he was doing or had some disposable cash for a new tablet when it got bricked. There are so many threads with people bricking the tf300t it's not something I would risk doing. If your a bit more experienced with the tf300t then happy reading :) I'd be inclined to re-read everything you can find a few times over :)
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wetbiker7:
The info about not touching it unless you are 300% sure you know what you are doing is the best advice I've seen all day and I couldn't agree more.

As you can see by many of the threads in here, it doesnt take much to brick this device. Unless you know what you are doing, leave the kernel alone. The tf300t would be an expensive paper weight.

Smart move. I would love to change mine but IMO, it's just not worth taking the risk. I've got too much invested in my tab and dock.

It would be nice if you get it figured out though and it's an easy fix.

[Samsung Infuse 4G] bokonon9:
I have a Infuse running the Unofficial CM10.1 - 1/14/2013 build on T-mobile's $30 unlimited web, text, and 100 minutes plan and I'm trying to find the best solution to using VoIP with Google Voice. Since I only have 100 minutes I'm looking to take advantage of the 5GB of 4G data with which I don't even get 3G apparently with an Infuse on T-Mobile as I understand it.

I have searched all infuse forums and elsewhere to the best of my ability and have found these options:

- A possibly outdated method for getting Wifi calling with T-mobile. I was looking for confirmation that this would work with CM10.

- Sipdroid

- GrooveIP

- Skype.

- Talkatone sucked so I'm not considering it.

I'm basically just wondering if there are any other options out there for VoIP or if anyone has any recommendations.

Thanks in advanced.

Edit: Also, I've been looking for anyway to improve my mobile data speeds and service in general with T-Mobile. If any other Infuse owners on T-Mobile have suggestions that would be great.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Nexii:
Cloud?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] HiKsFiles:
+1

I have a 32Gb S3 + 16Gb external SD and, honestly, I don't need that much memory on my device anymore.

Music? All uploaded to Google Play Music

Important photos/videos? Dropbox and/or Google Drive

Other files? Google Drive

It's only really usefull for TiBU backups and Nandroids but that's about it.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] kgbkny:
Cloud is by far not an ideal solution, especially if you're on a tiered data plan and not around wifi at all times. Besides, nothing beats instant access to files that are stored on the device itself.

Good luck listening to music on the metro :good:
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] wiz4769:
I kinda get the complaining about the phones only having 16g or 32, but with an SD at 64g now honestly I dont see an issue, Im one that does NOT use the cloud , but 16g on the phone for the apps themselves and 64g for my music and such is fine. Im sure the 128g SD will not be too far off. Its just the way it is now and you will have to adapt, you can complain all you want but ALL phones are taking this path so you will either deal with it or well whine about it and deal with it. Just be glad Samsung so far has kept the SD...imagine them saying hey they want a 64g phone, but lets take the SD out like everyone else. That would suck even more. With the cloud taking over as the future they do not see the need for 64g phones with SD slots. The majority will never use that so its not worth it for only the diehards. I do think they need to change it so we can use the SD for apps like it was before without hacking and trickery. This would solve alot of issues.

The cloud? Now why would I want to put all my stuff on someone else's computer? Its useful for work but nothings more practical then being able to access my stuff without data and wifi

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] apertotes:
That is the reason I rejoiced when I saw HTC financial report. It seems that consumers spoke clearly, and chose Samsung over HTC, even though HTC phones look better and have nicer screens. Samsung and Sony seem the only ones that still understand that consumers may want a microSD card. So maybe not all hope is lost.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] lgkahn:
the issue is if you dont root you cannot put many programs such as gps maps on the external card. you need to root to do it.. Such as sygic navigon etc. and can quickly fill up the internal sd .
